“Thus far it’s been an incredible turnout by the Emerson community,” Calhoun said. “We came in with a goal of 200 and we’ve reached more than 75 percent of that in the first week alone. Not only does this project showcase the generosity of our students and staff, but it’s exciting to see everyone show such enthusiasm in being able to own and wear Emerson gear and represent their pride in our school.”

Anyone can drop off donations in the Piano Row building, 150 Boylston St., Lower Level 2, or contact Calhoun by email at Vaughn_calhoun@emerson.edu.
